Twin Cities AKA (Guynamite/Analog Jones/GUYNAMUKAT) have created a funk-drenched juggernaught of an album called Like That Every Time. While putting the song at the heart of each track, Twin Cities fearlessly combine influences with a healthy disregard for hype or convention. Joining them on this roller-coaster ride are a transatlantic All-Star cast of vocalists including Shea Soul, D.ablo and Duchy.
Thankfully they sent us their debut double A-side Raincloud/Anticipation (available NOW) which takes their melodramatic sound out of the basement and lets it loose on an unsuspecting world. Raincloud (click link to view video) features Shea Soul, well known for collaborations with MJ Cole, Phil Asher and last summer’s funky house smash ‘Make it Funky’. On Raincloud, Twin Cities take her into classic soul territory but mix it up with their own brand of futuristic stardust. Shea delivers on the vocals with a song that’s simple, sophisticated and universal all at the same time.
Anticipation is a searing ballad driven by synths and swing beats. Duchy’s emotional performance rises and falls with the dramatic arrangement. Get the single HERE
